Heads up, irrigators!
We’re reaching out to our irrigation customers about a brief load control test scheduled for:
- May 14 from 10:00 am to noon
- May 15 from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.
Why the Test?
We’ve recently upgraded our load control software and this test will ensure it functions as expected. This will help us maintain reliable power for everyone.
What to Expect:
- We understand irrigation schedules are crucial, and we’ve minimized disruption by limiting test times.
- You’ll receive a reminder text each morning confirming the specific control times for that day. To sign up for our text message service, click here.
- The number of customers affected will depend on real-time load demands.
- We’ll follow established control protocols as if it were a regular control day within the allowable May timeframe as outlined in your irrigation contracts.
In short, you can operate your irrigation systems normally, but anticipate a power shutoff during the designated test windows.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Dawson PPD at 308-324-2386 or sign up for our text message service here.
